Transportation & Logistics CEO Executive Search

Confidential, Retained Search for Leaders Who Drive Success

In the high-risk, low-margin transportation sector, a CEO must do more than cast a vision. They must actively protect operating ratios, navigate skyrocketing insurance costs, and build the strategic lanes that drive sustainable yield. We connect you with elite, passive CEOs who understand asset-heavy logistics.

    Honesty, insight & results
    Craig served as the executive recruiter who helped successfully lead me through the recruitment process leading to an executive position at Swift Transportation. Craig was honest, direct, well organized, and followed through on commitments he made to me.  He helped me understand the requirements and skills neccessary to succeed in the role he was recruiting to fill, provided exposure to key leaders, and helped me understand the culture of the company.

    They keep me on top
    I reached out to Craig to gain insight on a project I was working on. Craig was a great resource and most willing to help me understand a market I was just discovering. Craig helped me recruit an experienced trucking executive to assume the President role of Chesapeake Energy’s new Trucking Division. I really appreciate the help Craig provided and would recommend him without hesitation.

    Continues to deliver solid results
    I worked with Craig on a daily basis for over a decade at Stevens Transport. He was my Vice President of Human Resources. He helped me grow my company by recruiting experienced candidates for every department. We called him again in mid-2016 to recruit an experienced Vice President of Administration, Director of Maintenance and a Director of Safety. Craig continues to deliver solid results for us.
